The Apple horror movies chart only features two directors more than once in the Top 10 leading up to Halloween 2023, forming a mismatched pair.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT David Gordon Green and Tim Burton have both accomplished the same achievement the week before Halloween, despite being very different filmmakers. Burton is best known for his stylized, off-kilter works that blend horror and fantasy, such as Edward Scissorhands and Corpse Bride.

On Apple's chart of the best-selling horror movies at the time of writing, only two directors have more than one title in the Top 10. The list boasts a variety of titles that include classics like Poltergeist and new releases such as Talk to Me and Saw X, but the two directors with multiple entries couldn't be more different. The first is David Gordon Green, with the new The Exorcist: Believer release at No. 1 and Halloween Kills at No. 9, followed by Tim Burton with Sleepy Hollow at No.

David Gordon Green and Tim Burton's Horror Movie Domination Explained The presence of two David Gordon Green horror movies on this list is somewhat less of a surprise. The Exorcist: Believer is the newest horror movie on the list, joining other recent horror movie digital releases such as Saw X and The Nun II, which explains his presence at No. 1.

Both of Tim Burton's charting movies, on the other hand, are older titles, with Beetlejuice having been released in 1988, followed by Sleepy Hollow in 1999. More recently, Burton has been known for effects-heavy family movies including Alice in Wonderland, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, and Dumbo.

Although Tim Burton is much more of a legacy director than David Gordon Green, both have been prominent in the horror genre discourse of the past few years. However, it is still an impressive feat that they were able to beat out their competition.
